Levenston, E. A. – English Teachers' Journal (Israel), 1985
Presents an overview of the role of translation in foreign language teaching and learning. Argues that translation is useful for: (1) practicing grammatical structures, (2) explaining vocabulary items, (3) testing at all levels, and (4) developing communicative competence. Also, translation is to be taught as a skill in its own right. (SED)
